Just never needed one so never went looking for one, never had the option for a free one either.
I just cast direct to the TV.

Yeah, these days you don't need them so much as TV's have them built in. They're very handy.

ah ha! All the work paid off... went for an mtb ride in the new forest with some friends, and last time we went I was pushing the bike up the hills and falling way back.
This time I overtook them up the first hill!!
but now I need to learn to pace myself, it was not pretty directly thereafter
You've got to learn when to retire or when to pull and injury. Always leave them wanting more.

Just registered for Zwfit TDF portal series. All but two of them look easily doable in under an hour for me.

Need to get myself a second fan for Zwifting over the summer. Did a Z2 ride last night and it was toasty. Would normally be outside but when partner is out in the evenings I can't so its that or nothing.

Someone on bike radar forum said CLEVACLOGS code gives further 10% off already discounted prices at https://www.cleva-uk.com/collections/floor-fans
Still works now, £45 for vacmaster and £73 for remote cardio version.
I have my fan set so it only just gets my head but mostly my torso and legs.
Then I keep a damp cloth for wiping my head. Fan only on setting 1/3 and it's more than enough. Doing a threshold workout tonight.
Your room must be a lot cooler then mine.
Having been woken up by a gnat 2 nights in the past week, I am very tempted to get air con for optimum sleep as well as to cycle on wet or very windy days.
Says 28c at the minute. It's a big industrial fan though.
Keep water in my beer fridge as well so that's always 1c help keep cool.
Careful, most of these portable AC units are really loud. We bought a cheapo one last year. ~£350 and while it cools down the rooms really well, you wouldn't want it on all night.

Mate its 25 degrees in my office right now!
Being comfortable. What a terrible idea. I mean it's as bad as people putting the heating on too keep warm. LolAircon for Zwift in England. Get a grip lads.
I really like the idea of these climbing portals they’ve added recently, but can’t help but feel like they’ve dropped the ball.
Why oh why haven’t they added the real world climbs, albeit in zwifts cartoony fashion? The weird alternate zones they’ve created just feel… weird.

Sign me up: where do I get one?You don't have a Chromecast?! How have you made it through the last 10 years without being given a free one?! You must be about the only person on the planet

I've done two of them this week including one 20 minutes ago. Tbh if you are going hard enough then the surroundings don't really matter. I can only assume having them the way they are makes it so much easier from a programming point of view and not have to generate backgrounds although I do feel a generic countryside or mountain-scape would be better. The colour coding I feel helps with the effort management.
Passed a few people on tron bikes. Noobs.
Oh I get why they made them that way just feel it’s a missed opportunity.
Also… tron noob here!

I've got one too but I don't use it much. There are faster bikes depending on route and wheel set up plus you can't see when you are in a draft with it. Regardless though, it doesn't climb well.
